Anne L. Gingerich, MSW (she/her/hers)Executive Director

With a firm belief in the abundance of resources available, Anne loves to don her visionary hat and consider what might be possible for PANO members, the nonprofit community and PANO in partnership with various organizations, companies and government entities.

Anne approaches her work from a systems approach, engaging multiple individuals and groups to identify and implement collaborative solutions to community problems. At PANO, she “walks alongside” community benefit organizations, increasing their effectiveness, efficiency and financial stability through the planning, training, facilitation and referral services available at PANO.
